Well, it had only been out for a year - Microsoft has finally released a free update for Office Mobile that adds support for its Office 2007 file formats.
The new Open XML (eXtensible Markup Language) formats for Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents are said to reduce file size, which is a bonus if you are downloading them over GPRS, and they add security features.
Available for download here, the update also adds support for working files stored within ZIP archives, some viewing enhancements for Excel spreadsheets and support for the SmartArt diagram format.
It’s a rather chunky 12MB download, and you will need at least 6MB free on your Windows Mobile (version 5 or 6) device to install and run the upgrade.
